From Trash to Treasure

I've always wanted to make one of these and I finally took the time to get it done.  Hopefully I can get a better picture in the morning when I'm not too tired to hold the camera still.  On the chair there's a small water fountain and a sleeping fairy.  Once the flowers grow and fill in a bit more it should look OK... yes?

Need free sheet music?

I came across a great site for for free sheet music.  We have a few piano players in the family and this site is loaded with great old hymns, Christmas carols and more. The site is created by Yoke Wong, a native of Malaysia and the founder of Harmony and Melody Studio, Inc.

Notes For those of you that have always wanted to learn to play piano she has some online piano lessons and courses for learning how to read music.  For those that are accomplished pianists but feel you could improve, you may want to consider having a look at her sight reading exercise samples.

If you are considering buying a piano you'll also find some great information in her buying guide which covers grand, upright and digital piano's.

My son took lessons when he was younger and I really wish he had stuck with it.  He was doing very well but did not like having to practice every day so he gave it up.  I was pretty disappointed but I don't believe in trying to force something like that on a kid.  He has always been more interested in how things work and has become pretty good at wiring model railroads and such.

Introduction to a new blog

Advert There's a new blog written by Tomer Treves, VP at Infolinks, that may prove to be an interesting read. His blog called Online Siesta is a about online marketing, digital advertising and website monetizing. The first posts of Online Siesta have been dedicated to In-Text advertising.

Infolinks enables website owners and publishers to benefit from In-Text advertising directly, so it is Tomer Treves business to help folks learn how to be the best publishers they can be while tapping into the hidden treasure within their site.

Some blogs are written as a way to release one's thoughts and opinions, while others are a way to keep friends and family informed, but more often than not blog publishers are hoping to generate some income for their efforts.  But just like the internet, advertising methods are continually changing and advertisers as well as publishers often need to change their methods of reaching an audience.

Online Siesta looks at why rich media - animated and living video image ads - are not capturing audiences the way they once did. 

So far, Tomer Treves posts have captured my interest and Online Siesta may prove to be worthy of subscribing to if you are an advertiser or a publisher hoping to generate income on the internet.
